I have a line of cells (or divs):
cell1
cell2
cell3
cell4
I want cell1 cell2 and cell4 to always show all their data (but also to shrink to fit), and if there is not enough room on the line, i want cell2 to clip its data in order to prevent a wrapping of the line.
I also would like cell4 to align to the right of the row.
cell1 cell2 cell3 cell4
data clipped data data data
ideas?
